Answer: you bought 9 burgers and 16 tacos

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of burgers that you bought.

Let y represent the number of tacos that you bought.

You buy a total of 25 burgers and tacos. It means that

x + y = 25

The burgers cost $3.50 each and the tacos cost $2.25 each. The total cost of the burgers and tacos that you bought is $67.50. It means that

3.5x + 2.25y = 67.5- - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 25 - y into 1, it becomes

3.5(25 - y) + 2.25y = 67.5

87.5 - 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5

- 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5 - 87.5

- 1.25y = - 20

y = - 20/ - 1.25

y = 16

x = 25 - y = 25 - 16

x = 9

The statement tan theta -12/5, csc theta -13/5, and the terminal point determined by theta is in quadrant 2."​
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Answer C:

Cannot be true because csc(\theta)  is greater than zero in quadrant 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the csc of an angle is negative, since the cosecant function is defined as:

csc(\theta)=\frac{1}{sin(\theta)}

that means that the sin of the angle must be negative, and such cannot happen in the second quadrant. The sine function is positive in the first and second quadrant.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

Cannot be true because  csc(\theta)  is greater than zero in quadrant 2.
